"Yeah, my plan is just to get rich, but as long as I don't develop a taste for yachts I'm all set."

"Could you even like, survive on a yacht?" asks Peony.

"Probably not! - the cane isn't decorative," she adds to Lucien, "I need it to walk."

"It's a very nice cane!"

What is he saying.

"Thank you, it was a graduating from virtuality present."

Lucien is happy to chat with Isabella (and also the other people) for the next few minutes but eventually he finishes his food and finds he is still hungry.

"I'm going to grab seconds, should I bring back something for any of you?"

"Yeah, I saw brownies, bring me a brownie."

"Yes!"

Lucien scampers off flustered and returns with a brownie for Isabella.

"... I forgot to get my own food didn't I."

Awww. "Looks like it."

Peony giggles. The sub kneeling at Isabella whimpers sadly.

Lucien would be confused about the kneeling sub but he is distracted by feeling flustered and needing to go back and get himself food. Again.

Isabella lingers over her brownie. Peony and Myeisha skip off.

Lucien returns with food. He is not sure what to do about the kneeling sub that Isabella is ignoring and sort of glances at him awkwardly.

"Ignore him, he's harassing me and the admin won't do anything about it," mutters Isabella.

Well that sounds worrisome! Lucien will ignore him he guesses.

"The brownie good?"

"Yes it is, thank you very much."

Lucien does not know how to make conversation so he will eat until spoken to or something.

"What else are you taking this semiquarter?"

"Statistics 1, Econ 3, History of Public Infrastructure, Civil Liberties 1, and Applied Biology 1" 

"That's a lot for one semiquarter."

"My dad tried to convince me to take fewer but didn't think it seemed too unreasonable?"

"Anything that isn't your basic 'take this to get a requirement out of the way' type stuff is going to be pretty intense, the requirements are really light because they want to leave you magic practice time and they assume if you're going to show up to Econ 3 you're really into econ and probably not also taking four other things."

"I am really into econ!... and also the four other things."

"Well, I hope you're really good at time management, you're going to have a ton of reading and problem sets. But I'm also on Econ 3 this month so I guess I'll see you there."

"I think I'm probably good at time management? I hope."

His mental model of his mom is laughing but he is not going to mention that to the very attractive dom who is in front of him.

"Well, you have all week to add-drop and they're pretty generous about retakes if need be."

"Mhm. I'm glad I'll know someone in Econ 3."

"Did you test out of the prereqs somehow?"
